ok, let my start by saying i'm colourblind lol

i've made a skin for our team, and im finding it hard to get the colour pink correct, here's 2 screen shots... look at the mirrors, the first is to purple (so im told) and the 2nd almost white.

my colour mode in cs4 is rgb, not sure if its adobe rgb, so i need your help





this is the pink i want;

Does photoshop not have a "pipet" tool to select the colour, in gimp you click the pipet (or hold ctrl while having paintbrush selected as your cursor) then place it over the colour you want and click it and it then places that colour as your current colour. As I say I dont use photoshop so not sure if it works the same or similar, attached is the tool as it looks in gimp

yes it does, but, i think its something to do with the "color profiles" "rgb" vs "adboe rgb"

Adobe RGB is the same as normal RGB so I don't know what you are on about.

I think the colour you are looking for is this - #FF69B4

but give a try using some pink colour schemes from this page

for me CS4 shows - ff7e93

Actually there are a couple of different ones, such as sRGB which doesn't have quite the range of the full RGB spectrum. .

It's mostly used in situations where super-saturated colours would cause colour-bleed and/or interference, such as broadcast television, or for preparing graphics for websites, where the colours are even more limited.
